San Sebastian, also known as Donostia in Basque, is a beautiful coastal city in the Basque Country, Spain. Located in La Concha Bay, close to the French border, it is famous for its beaches, vibrant cultural scene and world-class cuisine.

2 fabulous tours by 1 fabulous guide
We spent 2 full days with Diego and it was a wonderful experience. We toured 5 beautiful towns along the Basque coast the first day. The second day was a tour of a charming winery in the Rioja valley and also a visit to the Salt Valley of Anana. The salt valley was unlike anything we have scene and was so interesting. Diego grew up in the area and is very knowledgeable about the history of all towns. We learned so much, I cannot thank him enough. His english is great too. I would highly recommend him!!!

Above and Beyond
Diego has such a rich and extensive knowledge of Basque history and culture and displays a level of hospitality that is just so incredibly rare. That should already be enough… but the thing that sets Feel Basque Country apart from not just other local guides but guides all around the world, is that Diego genuinely, truly, sincerely wants you to have the best time. He has so much pride in the Basque region and in you having an unforgettable experience. We could not fault one bit of our 2 days with him showing us around.
Basque Country is amazing on its own but it is so much better with Diego going above and beyond to ensure you have the best time. We weren’t sure what to expect but after a couple days, going from the San Fermin Festival in Pamplona all the way to Biarritz, we can say with so much confidence that you will leave so incredibly fulfilled and satisfied, wishing you never left!
All that said, we also feel like we made a new friend! And can’t wait to come back again!

The Best Tour Guide is San Sebastian
I just returned from a magical trip to San Sebastian and Basque Spain. We (2 couples) booked a tapas tour with Diego and it was absolutely magical. Diego is a Basque native and begins the tour with an informative history of the region. We then proceeded to visit six local tapas bars and sample the most delicious food. Diego picked very unique places and at each bar we sampled their specialty followed by a refreshing and tasty pour of local wine or beer. Diego is very knowledgable about the Basque region and we enjoyed discussing life and food with him. I highly recommend booking with Diego and my only regret is that we didn't have time to experience his other tours. Gracias Diego! Rachel, Gary, Jeff & Sara

The only way to see San Sebastián is with Diego!
Diego was our tour guide, we were a family of four 52,51,21, and 19 - we spent two days with Diego after traveling through France and Spain and he was by far a five star tour guide, flexible and adjusting along the way to meet our needs. The first day was a bike tour on E-bikes and we got a complete tour of San Sebastián which allowed us to know where we wanted to go for the remainder of our trip in San Sebastián - discotheque - surfing - pintxos - aquarium - etc - day two we were supposed to go sailing but the weather and ocean did not want to cooperate so we adjusted and went to see - Biarritz - Saint-Jean-de-luz - Hondarribia - we learned so much about French and Spanish history - along with culture and traditions - Diego arranged for a special lunch for us and truly allowed us to immerse ourselves in the basque culture. He spoke excellent English, Basque, Spanish, and French! We visited local fresh food markets, local fashion shops, castles, churches, hotels, and many pintxos shops!

The perfect tour around the Basque Country and Biarritz
Our tour guide, Diego is a Basque Country native. He is very knowledgeable of the history, geography and traditions of this region and the country! He organizes state of the art tours, personalized up to the last detail. We went around many cities and towns like San Sebastián, Calahorra, Vitoria, Guernica, Santillana Del Mar, Bilbao, and we also crossed the boarder to France and visited Biarritz and Bayonne. We were interested in the Jewish roots of those towns and Diego organized special tours and made appointments with a local rabbi and with a priest to visit the places and the museum. Very efficiently planned, always on time, Highly recommended. He made our trip a lifetime experience! Five stars plus! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
